Its My Wesleyan Methodists entry says that its site "probably lies under what is now a grassed open space", but an examination of old maps clearly shows that the building at the left here, in a Streetview of 2016, stands on its site. Whether any fabric of the chapel survives in unclear. NY 0949 2811.

East Howle, Co. Durham, the derelict St. Columbus, as seen by the Streetview van in 2010. It stands a short distance north-east of the village at NZ 2971 3425. A Primitive Methodist Chapel once stood at the western end of the village, at NZ 2911 3380. Later maps label it as Bethesda Tabernacle (Assemblies of God). The site is now down to grass (from a satellite view), but the Streetview van hasn't been passed the site. A Christian Lay Church (later Independent Methodist) stood near the eastern end of the village, at NZ 2935 3386. Again, Streetview hasn't seen it, but from a satellite view the site of it seems to lie beneath the east-end house and garden built on the site of the original terraced housing.

The village also had two chapels, showing as a Primitive Methodist and a Baptist on the 25" O.S. map of 1896. The P.M., stood or stands behind houses on the south side of High Street at SU 6799 2208. Aerial views show that it may have survived, or been replaced with a later building with the same footprint, but it can't be seen on Streetview. An old photo of it can be seen here. It pre-dates a map of 1869. The Baptist Chapel was on Temple Lane at SU 6809 2208. It survives, converted to residential use (2011 Streetview). The text below the 1869 map says it was at that time called Zoar Strict Baptist Chapel, and was later R.C. (which Genuki calls Chapel of The Assumption), converted in the 1990's. The map also shows Providence Chapel (Calvinist) on Chapel Lane. It had evidently been demolished by the time of the 1896 O.S. map. Its site lies behind the hedge seen in a 2022 Streetview.

The other Chapel stood or stands further north along Green End Road at SE 1003 4227. Identified on the same map as "Wes. Meth. Chapel", it can barely be seen on Streetview, and from what can be seen I suspect that the chapel doesn't survive, although its graveyard does.

The Methodist Church (2022 Streetview) on St. Neot's Road was originally Primitive Methodist. Dated here to 1870-1, it's curious that the 6" and 25" O.S. maps from the turn of the 19th - 20th century fail to label it. A 1901 map shown here does however.

There was another Methodist Church on High Street at SK 4280 7931. A map of 1898 labels it as Wesleyan. The bungalow on its site was seen by Streetview in 2008. This source dates it to 1876, re-purposed by 1967 and demolished in 1977. There are some photos of this handsome building, and it also says that it stood on the site of a predecessor of 1807. The Primitive Methodists were also here, on Chesterfield Road, at SK 4175 7880. It survives as the recently closed Eckington Methodist Church, seen by Streetview in 2021, and is dated here, where it's called Mount Zion, to 1877. There was also a Mission Room on West Street at SK 4189 7891. From O.S. maps it was built between 1883 and 1897. Closed before the earliest Streetview visit in 2008 when it was sporting the St. John's Ambulance logo, its final appearance was in May 2021 and subsequently demolished.

The more northerly, near the parish church, stood on Lethnot Road at NO 5994 6912. Pre-dating a map of 1861, the building survived well into the last century, but had probably gone out of use earlier. Its site was seen by Streetview in 2022. It likely went out of use in the early 20th century, replaced by the other Free Church on Dalhousie Street, at NO 6000 6875. Bungalows now occupy the site (2008 Streetview). Oddly, it still has a Category B listing, which dates it to 1900.

The poet R.S. Thomas was incumbent here. SN 6856 9553. The church website has a nice photo showing the apse. Its Coflein entry (which has numerous photos) mentions the preceding church of circa 1623. Grade II* listed. The lych-gate, also of 1833, is listed separately as grade II. The nearby church hall, a corrugated iron building, is also listed as grade II, wherein it's dated to circa 1900. Despite its appearance, it has apparently never been a church. All © Chris Stafford (2014). The 6" O.S. map of 1902 shows Capel Ebenezer (Wesleyan) a little way north at SN 6876 9573. Its Coflein entry dates it to 1900 - a re-build of earlier chapels of 1823 and 1834. Now in residential use, it can be seen here on a Streetview of 2010. The same map shows Capel y Graig (Calvinistic Methodist), at about a  quarter of a mile south of St. Michael's at SN 6851 9536. Dated in its Coflein entry to 1868, a rebuild of earlier chapel of 1808  and 1840. It can be seen in a 2010 Streetview. Another place of worship shows on the 1" O.S. map of 1956, on the main road at SN 6872 9582. Now evidently in residential use (2018 Streetview) , it bears a sign saying Capel Bach, and has a date-stone for 1900. Coflein lists it as Independent, and says it had been converted by 1998.

A photo of it is available here, where it also says it was taken over by the Salvation Army between the wars. NZ 1885 3010. The Wesleyan chapel has also gone. It stood on the road heading south from the village, at NZ 1890 3002. A house now stands on the site, seen by the Streetview van in 2009.

It pre-dates a map of 1906, and was damaged by flooding in 1960. A photo of the damaged church can be seen here. A painting of it hangs in the present church. © Chris Kippin (2022).

The 6" O.S. map of 1905 marks a Chapel on Pudding Bag Lane at SK 9248 1136. I haven't been able to discover its denomination. It (or the building which replaced it) can be seen on a 2011 Streetview. A Wesleyan Methodist Chapel also existed at one time, along a passageway extending north from Top Street. Present on a map of 1930, it stood roughly where the building is today at the far end of the passageway, as seen here on a 2011 Streetview. The National Archives references documents pertaining to the chapel for 1932-8. Circa TF 926 114.

Eyam, Derbyshire, St. Lawrence. SK 2178 7642. © Bill McKenzie. Another view, © Steve Bulman. The church has a splendid sun-dial, dating from 1775. © Steve Bulman. Another view, and two interior views (photographed by kind permission of the church Administrator) - 1, 2, all © Mike Berrell (2011). Although the church dates from the 12th century, a cross (sides 1 and 2) in the churchyard speaks of the presence of Christianity in the area since at least the 8th century (the Wikipedia entry for Eyam says that the cross isn't in its original location). The story of Eyam and the plague is of course well known - the Wikipedia entry referred to earlier covers it if you are unfamiliar with it. A modern window, installed in 1972 in memory of Richard Creswick, commemorates the events of the plague, and a document records the names of the plagues victims. Two other windows - 1, 2. I particularly like this "fat cat" gargoyle, though its good state of preservation suggests it is relatively modern. Another interior view and the two fonts - 1, 2, the latter much the more interesting and older (circa 12th century). Some fragments of wall painting survive. All © Carole Sage (2018). Link. Grade II* listed. For the listed cross and tombs see here. The former Wesleyan Reform Chapel on The Causeway. It's dated here to circa 1781. Another source says 1787 17SK 2216 7643. © James Murray.

Eyeworth, Bedfordshire, All Saints. TL 2498 4559. © Les Needham (2010). An old postcard view, from Judy Flynn's Collection. Note the appearance of the tower before it had the spire removed, and the tower reduced in size. This was carried out in the late 1960's, following a thunderstorm, lightning hitting the spire and causing a fire. The repairs were dedicated in 1970. Three additional views - 1, 2, 3, all © Chris Stafford (2013). Link1 (many photos, including interiors). Link2. Grade I listed. A Quaker Meeting is held in Eyeworth Village Hall (2021 Streetview). They used to meet in the schoolroom of the Congregational Church in Guilden Morden, Cambridgeshire. TL 2517 4590. Link.
Eynesbury, Bedfordshire, St. Mary the Virgin. TL 1837 5984. © Janice Tostevin. Link. Grade II* listed. The Methodist Church of 1928 stands on Berkley Street at TL 1849 5974, and can be seen on a Streetview from 2018. Link. Eynesbury's entry on the My Primitive Methodist website says that the current Methodist Church had a P.M. predecessor "in the front street", dating from 1855. The building shown in the 1994 photo stands just a few yards south of the present church on Berkley Street, but it doesn't feel to be a wholly convincing candidate. Here's a Streetview from 2018.
